How long is the ferry ride to Victoria from Seattle?

We're considering staying for a week in Victoria but are flying into Seattle and arriving about 5pm in the evening. We also have to rent the car and pick up our luggage. I was wandering how long the ferry ride is to Victoria from Seattle and how LATE the ferry departs?How long is the ferry ride to Victoria from Seattle?
It's a 2 3/4 hour ride. But are you aware that the ferry from Seattle to Victoria is a PASSENGER ONLY ferry - which means you wouldn't have a car once you get to Victoria?



The Victoria Clipper is also not a ferry on the Washington State Ferry System so there are nowhere near as many ferry runs. In fact, through May there's only ONE FERRY PER DAY - http://www.clippervacations.com/ferry/fe鈥?/a> and reservations are required.



A far better way to get to Victoria would be to drive up to Tsawwassen, BC and take the passenger and car ferry from there to Victoria. It's a 2 hr 15 min drive from Seattle to Tsawwassen and then an hour and a half ferry ride that runs just about every hour all day long - http://www.bcferries.com/schedules/mainl鈥?/a> So your total trip time would only be an hour more and you'd have your car with you AND be MUCH more flexible about when you get on the ferry both ways.
You're welcome! I was just picturing you showing up going "ACKKKK!!! What do we do now?" LOL

It's called the Victoria Clipper, so you should be able to Google all the specific infomation you need by typing it into a Google (or other) search engine.



Generally speaking, the trip is about 4 hours from downtown Seattle to Victoria, and there is one departure early in the morning and another one late in the afternoon--the afternoon trip being mostly to accommodate Canadians going home or tourists who plan to spend an overnight in Victoria.



You can also depart from Port Angeles to Victoria, and there is an early afternoon departure (about 1:30) from Port Angeles. To get to Port Angeles, you take a ferry from either downtown Seattle or Edmonds (about 25 minutes north of downtown) to either Bainbridge Island or Kingston. (These are 30 minute trips on ferries that leave every 45 minutes or so, and then a 75 minute drive to Port Angeles--from Kingston--or a 90 minute drive--from Bainbridge Island). This way you don't have to wait all afternoon for the trip back to Victoria from Seattle, and you get a beautiful drive to boot! You just have to plan it so that you get to Port Angeles in plenty of time to catch that 1:30 ferry. (To be absolutely safe, I'd want to be on board a Washington State ferry no later than 11:00-11:15).



The schedules change depending on time of year, so be sure you have current info for the time of year you are traveling.
It's a 2 hour 45 minute ferry ride from Seattle to Victoria on the Victoria Clipper. Here's a link to their schedule. There's really no need to rent a car in Victoria. Most sites are seen on foot and there are lots of hotels within a very short walk from were the ferries dock. Days Inn is nice %26amp; reasonable %26amp; right across the street from the ferries. If you want to travel out to Buchart Gardens, there are buses that can take you there. Have fun!How long is the ferry ride to Victoria from Seattle?

What is the cheapest most comfortable ferry between Seattle and Victoria?

My family needs to go between the main ferry station in Seattle to Victoria in Canada.What is the cheapest most comfortable ferry between Seattle and Victoria?
The Victoria Clipper is the only ferry running from Seattle to Victoria. And it's passenger only so once you get there you'd have to take cabs, buses, etc. It's also quite pricey. This time of year a round trip ticket's a $145 per person. You'll get to Victoria in about three hours.



Whenever I go to Victoria I take the ferry from Tsawwassen, BC - which does take cars. It's a beautiful ferry with a great restaurant at the stern that has an amazing buffet. You can dine and watch for whales and dolphins. Love it. This ferry costs $90 round trip and you'll pay under $20 each extra for passengers round trip. It takes about two and a half hours to drive from Seattle to Tsawwassen and the ferry takes an hour and a half. So this trip will only take you an hour more than leaving from Seattle AND you'll have your car so you'll save money on cab or bus fare.What is the cheapest most comfortable ferry between Seattle and Victoria?
if you know what time you want to take the ferry buy your ticket online beforehand. That reserves you a spot on the ferry.

I'd recommend taking a ferry to bainbridge island first and then driving to Port Angeles and taking the ferry there to Victoria...it's alot quicker.

How would you punish the firestarters in the case of Victoria current bushfires?

Authorities have made it clear that they believe there were a number of people involved in starting Victoria's most deadly fires ever.



If you were to have the choice, how would you punish the firestarters?



Personally, I would castrate them in the case of men and a mastectomy in the case of women. Allow them to live life with a permanent disfigurement, in the same sense that their act has left on the lives, minds, bodies and souls of so many others.How would you punish the firestarters in the case of Victoria current bushfires?
make them put out the fire, then beat the living hell out of them.
I would imprison them for twenty years and each day, make them listen to victim impact statements and make them look at photos of burns victims to give them something to think about while they're in there.How would you punish the firestarters in the case of Victoria current bushfires?
I think they should be jailed for life.



Show your support to the bushfire victims by wearing green on Friday 13th Feb 2009.



Friday is considered "Green 4 Support Day".



Get on to your bosses at work and make sure the OK everyone to dress in green on Friday. All coworkers should donate a gold coin to dress casually and then a nominated rep can take the money to the local RED CROSS.

I just can't comprehend how anyone could get any kicks from seeing so many lives taken and all those belongings gone.

Sadly it doesn't sound like they'd catch any of those who started the fires. I just hope their conscience would devour their soul so they would die from the inside.How would you punish the firestarters in the case of Victoria current bushfires?
burn them for all the pain theyve caused



i know its a bit dramatic but who cares?

they deserve it
What penalty would ever be enough for all of the heartbreak they have caused? We can only hope that the courts throw the book at them...and then still it is not enough...I cannot understand what sickness drives them to arson...
i would make them help rebuild the communities and go to the hospital and change the dressings of burn victims!!



any punishment won't be enough to make up for the loss of life and devastation.

Ideas for decorating a victoria sponge cake?

Yeah, so i'm planning on making a birthday victoria sponge cake for my niece, but I need some ideas for decorating it...

I'm no expert when it comes to baking and decorating but I'd say I'm an 8 on a scale of 1-10, so don't make the ideas too crazy!

Thankyou xIdeas for decorating a victoria sponge cake?
Fairy cakes/buns :(cupcakes or mini cakes)

Use exactly the same mixture but pour the mixture into cake cases sitting in a bun tin and

cook for 15 mins at 180 degrees C.



Replace 25g of flour with cocoa powder for chocolate buns, a few drops of vanilla essence for plain buns, or why not experiment with chocolate chips and raisins, or even a few drops of natural food colouring for some crazy coloured buns!



Leave to cool - then the decorating FUN begins ... spread simple icing over the top of the cakes and add chocolate buttons, chocolate drops, any small sweets or hundreds and thousands.



Butterfly cakes: Use butter icing to make butterfly cakes - Cut a circle out of the top of the cakes and cut the circle in half to make wings. Fill the hole in the cake with butter icing and put a wing on each side.Ideas for decorating a victoria sponge cake?
Try a simple idea like for example if your nieces name was Alyson then you could write "Happy Birthday Alyson" on the cake with a cake pen (available from good supermarkets) after icing it. Also, you could get topping shakers (which include hundreds and thousands etc.) and maybe put a swirl or something on it.

Hope this helps you :)Ideas for decorating a victoria sponge cake?
I think that first answerer is trying to make money as a promoter or distributer. Strange. However you decorate your cake your niece will love it that you did this for her.

If you have access to any violets or other dainty fresh flowers, even from your yard (especially from your yard) you could try placing the blossoms only on top of the icing right before presenting. That would be cute.
After you ice it, you can put some little puffs with a pastry bag (I guess that's how you call them?) all around the surface, and then even give it a nice touch with 2 small natural flowers in one of the corners.... another nice way to decorate a cake is with a small chocolate shaped into some nice figure (a heart, etc.) or long thin wafers with creamy filling cut in halves.

How far is Victoria Coach Station from The 02 arena in London?

Hi i need to know how long it'll take to get to the o2 arena from Victoria Coach station in London?How far is Victoria Coach Station from The 02 arena in London?
Walk down to Victoria Station from the Coach Station and catch the Circle or District Lines of the Underground to Westminster. Change there to the Jubilee Line and get off at North Greenwich; the journey will take just over 30 minutes.
From Victoria tube (about a 10 min walk from Victoria Coach station) , two stops to Westminster (allow 10 mins including wait time) then change to Jubilee line (say 3 mins) then 7 stops to North Greenwich (allow 30 mins including wait time). Final walk to O2 is about 5 mins (inside you'll wait %26gt; 30 mins for food or drink if there a concert on). Total %26lt; 1 hr.

It will take longer going back as queues for tube and les frequent services late at night.

But if its a weekend there maybe engineering works and you need to check for this and go other tube routes or by river.How far is Victoria Coach Station from The 02 arena in London?
take circle line tube 1 stop to westminster change for jubilee line straight to o2 without delays 20-25 min

    How do you replace air conditioning belt 87 crown Victoria?
    I think this is the outer belt so all you do is loosen the AC bracket and remove belt then put on new one. Use a short pry bar to get some tension on the belt then re-tighten. Should be about of 1/2" play in center of belt, be careful not to over-tighten.
